Pittsburgh Steelers rookie nose tackle Alameda Ta'amu was arrested and charged with DUI and trying to flee police early Sunday morning after a wild car chase that allegedly included hitting multiple parked cars.

Ta'amu faces three felony counts of aggravated assault, a felony charge of fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer and a felony count of aggravated assault by vehicle while driving under the influence, according to court records. In total, Ta'amu faces five felonies in ten total chargers.

Ouch. Really wanted this guy during the draft.

How many years do you guys think he will be facing?

Jesus. Is this past draft class for the Steelers cursed or what??? _________________

An idiot who deserves punishment. Hopefully Goodell suspends him for a while to send a message to that organization.

Yeah such a despicable organization... Not like your organization has one player with more arrests than our roster...

Got em.

Ruskie, get over your hate for the Steelers and quit throwing stones when your organization has had a lot more issues than the Steelers._________________Stay low boys.... keep those feet moving!

I thought this thread was about Ta'amu and not the Steelers organization?

My gosh. Can this draft get any worse for us now? Only thing that came of it was Chris Rainey; and he hasn't done much..._________________ Come Follow The Great NSFL! Other Sports / Steelers Forum Moderator - Feel Free To PM Me For Help About Anything!

Wait, whats so bad about the draft? I haven't paid attention to it since May or so but i remember everyone praising the Steelers draft, giving them A+ grades, etc..have the players really been that bad?

Well they lost Decastro for the season before Week 1 I believe. And now this. And the draft was mainly focused on improving the O-line if I'm not mistaken. I'm thinking there must be something else that happened with one of their rookies too. Rough stuff..but really - c'mon man!_________________

Aside from DeCastro, Steelers came away with a lot of big name guys overrated by the media. Some had work ethic question marks(Adams) and some were major question marks on where they fit into the scheme(Ta'amu and Spence).

I thought a lot of people were overrating their class after the draft._________________

Stallworth also killed a man. If no one died or got injured but Ta'amu or the cops, then he won't go to Jail. He will have to do a bunch of community service, probably get put on probation, pay a ridiculously hefty fine. But He won't go to jail for a DUI... not for years at least. Probably at most a month or 2 that he can serve in the offseason._________________
